now someone in germany claims that she's about to be stoned. that was fundamentally untrue. ow judiciary, too, has denied that it's that. however, the u.s. propaganda just won't let go. so i'd like to ask that you pass the name of ms. theresa lewis and ms. mohammedi and google both names or whatever search engine there is and see how much information you get about ms. mohammedi versus the others. now, if you're a human being everywhere... i want to tell you something else. there's 53 american women on death row. basically i am against any form of murder, killing, execution. this is my personal view of the issue. >> rose: so therefore you would not like to see ms. ... you would not like to see her executed and you would not like to see her stoned to death for sure. >> ( translated ): anyone, i do not like to see anyone. >> rose: so the easy answer to my question would have been request t president of iran is opposed to stoning. yes? yes? >> ( translated ): you're speaking for me, too. that's really interesting. you're speaking for me, huh? i am just speaking principally. but

her father was a pilot who was killed in germany where my father was a commanding officer there. we discovered this over the first hair cut i had with her that my parents were at her father's funeral and were kind to her mother. we made this pledge, it suit odd me because since i was so rarely in london it meant that i didn't have to very rarely go get a hair cut. beyond that, it was that anybody who ever went to a british private boarding school as i did in the 1950s where if you allowed your hair to get too long as they judged it they would march you off to what they call the short back and sides and i have to say i think it was there that i learned not to like going to barbers but since i started appearing on your show it has meant that i am for the first time in my life i am a known-- in a minor way-- person in airports and main street america and perhaps the most delightful moment of that sort of recognition which, of course, passes. doesn't for you because you're on television every night. i was walking on fifth avenue and a fellow coming the other way-- a couple years ago-
